Uncommitted
Scout Report
Standing 6-11 with early Division I interest as a sophomore, this Utah big man is already turning heads on the national prep scene.
Background
Hailing from Mount Pleasant, Utah, Stra Zelic has made the move to prestigious Wasatch Academy to develop his craft alongside some of the nation's elite prospects. The 2028 center now trains daily with a roster featuring multiple top-60 national recruits, including Houston commit Isiah Harwell and UConn commit Junior County. This high-level environment at Wasatch has become a proving ground for his continued development against premier competition.
Playing Style
Zelic brings legitimate size and length to the center position at 6-11, providing the kind of rim presence that college coaches covet in today's game. His ability to alter shots and protect the paint gives him a clear defensive foundation to build upon. While still developing his offensive skill set, his frame suggests significant upside as he continues to add strength and refine his post moves. The key for Zelic will be expanding his range and improving his mobility to match the pace of modern basketball.
Recruitment
Already holding three Division I offers from Illinois, Kansas State, and East Carolina as just a sophomore, Zelic's recruitment is positioned for significant growth over the next two years. His national ranking of #64 in the 2028 class reflects his current standing among centers, but his combination of size and early interest suggests he could climb considerably with continued development. Programs seeking a true rim protector with long-term upside will likely continue to monitor his progress closely.
